Hughes County fan gets personal encounter with superstar singer Kid Rock

The Ada News

Ada —  

Brittany Robinson is still on Cloud 9 following her personal encounter with a superstar singer.

Her recent brush with fame occurred when she attended Kid Rock’s concert in Tulsa. Brittany was shocked when Kid Rock called her to the stage and sang a song to her.

 Following the incident, Brittany discussed her reaction and how it all unfolded.

“This is the best night of my life,” she recalls thinking. “I can’t believe this is happening!”

However, it did happen … and she has proof. 

It is a night she will remember for the rest of her life.

The special evening came on Saturday, Feb. 9, 2013. That’s when the 16-member Brittany Robinson "delegation"  made an 80-mile trek to the concert in Tulsa. 

Joining Brittany at the event were her parents, Kim and Eddie Robinson; her oldest brother, Tanner Robinson; her cousin, Paris Robinson; her brother’s girlfriend, Jordan Lucas; her uncle, Rich Robinson; and her family friends: Becky Elliott, Chad Elliott, Stacey Myrice, Dave Myrice, Angie Johnson, Darron Johnson, Lonnie Herring, Cody Johnson and Jon Eric Gann.

Brittany had excellent seats 13 rows from the front of BOK stage.

 “We had floor seats located on Row K,” she recalls. “My seat was #15. After taxes and fees, it was around $100 (for her ticket) — quite possibly the best $100 I’ve ever spent!”
